Description

Guangxi White Marble is a Chinese white marble quarried in Hezhou City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, the district holding the largest white marble reserves in China. The slab is snow white, high in whiteness and running above 96 percent calcium carbonate, crossed by grey and pale yellow veins that drift across the face like ink landscape painting — the reason the stone is commonly specified as a lower-cost stand-in for Italian Carrara. It is compact and fine-grained for a marble, so water absorption is low and carried-in water is less likely to stain the surface, and a polished face reaches a gloss reading of about 90 units. The trade-off is hardness: calcite marble scratches more readily than granite, so it fits interior wall cladding, flooring, window sills, thresholds, skirting, vanity tops and stair treads better than heavy-traffic public floors or exterior paving. Slabs are mesh-reinforced on the back for transport, and book-matched pairs can be selected for feature walls.
